Hello Nio, I'm sure I have replied you, in a civil style, as my wise friend Phill suggested to do. I have done that before and I will re-do it again but I hope I don't really have to re-reply yet another time :D On Thu, Jun 27, 2013 at 1:00 AM, Nio Wiklund wrote: > Dear Ladies and Gentlemen! >

Hi guys, i haven't wrote on this list for a while (now i have much more to do, including school), but i do like the "simplest as possible" installer, i think is a good idea. Also, we don't have to make lubuntu the most used os in the world (at least, i don't feel like it should be) so please d

Dear Ladies and Gentlemen! I wanted to try something that is much simpler from the ground, to perform a basic installation (not only to be able to install into a computer with low RAM, but in general to be successful without knowing much). I think some of the Windows XP users will try Lubuntu if

Hi Ali, Having 'manners and respect' includes not telling other people to learn 'manners and respect'. Also, from my point of view, you're both speaking in an informal fashion. We're all here because we're volunteers, and I don't think we need to be especially formal. Firing insults back i

I would strongly suggest you go and learn some manners and respect, then come back :) I would also suggest you read the CoC and the mailing list do and do not. And before you jump in to the middle of some serious discussion, keep the informal stuff away and don't assume you know much about Lubuntu

Hi, ubiquity will not work with 128Mb of RAM. After the alpha 1 is out, we may be able to get Julien to install ZRAM into our alternate installer for us to give it a try. Browsers have also grown over time, to the point where lubuntu dropped Ffox and switched to Chromium. Ffox has been on a strict

Hi Ali, But it is much *simpler* than today's installers. My installer is like a bicycle, and the other installers like aeroplanes with the cockpit full of fancy options, and some of them eat a lot of memory. But it is not beautiful yet. If someone dresses it up with a simple graphical interface,
